eSun eResin-PLA Pro - Transparent 0.5 Litre

With 3D Printing taking the world by storm over the past couple of years, and Makers from all over the world getting involved in this new form of desktop fabrication, we all now have the opportunity to take ideas and designs from inside our head and translate those directly into real world objects. However, while FDM printing has become quite widespread already, DLP & SLA Printing has taken a bit of a backseat, and that’s primarily due to the fact that until rather recently, 3D Resins have been quite limited in terms of material (or polymer) selection, but that’s rapidly being remedied by eSun's continuously growing range, which of course includes eResin-PLA Pro, and these take a slightly different approach by offering a resin based on eSun's popular PLA filament range.

Although these bottles of eSUN eResin-PLA Pro may look quite similar to other 3D Resins, eSun have specially made this resin as a PLA bio based resin with high strength, precision, and smooth surface. While enjoying the exact same quality and other attributes that you could expect from eSUN Standard Resins, the eResin PLA-Pro was created for an all-round purpose. High strength and precision allow you to use this resin for functional printing as well as normal everyday models. Dentists also have a use for this resin in the creation of prototypes and diagnostic models. Just remember that it’s still important to utilise those gloves and facemask when working with these resins, since they still do have similar particles that can cause problems after too much exposure.

The unique colour (or lack of colour) offers an intriguing aesthetic that is like slightly opaque glass, and this of course can be post-processed afterwards to remove the layer lines and make prints more transparent. And while some could argue that this is somewhat “boring” compared to some of the exciting 3D resin colours you can get, we absolutely love how it really shows off all of the fine details – from all angles! Great examples of impressive clear DLP prints would be buildings, machinery, jewellery and other intricate models, as the transparency allows you to see all of the fine details hidden within, really accentuating on the subtle or pronounced complexities of each model.

Shenzhen eSUN Industrial Co., Ltd was established in 2002 in Shenzhen Special Economic Zone and has rapidly become one of the leading international suppliers of 3D Printing Filament. They specialise in research, development and production of degradable polymer materials, and have grown their catalogue of filaments to include PLA, ABS, PC, PVA, and a wide range of other polymers and copolymers.

Their list of exclusive filament formulas include unique materials like wood, aluminium, bronze and other materials to create highly specialised filaments that can stretch, bend, be moulded or otherwise behave in very unique ways. Their filaments are also commonly characterised by their absolutely round shape, extremely low diameter tolerance, uniform colours and impressively stable melting points. These characteristics, in combination with their long-term insistent policy of “Best Quality, Reasonable Price” has garnered them a large share of the market, with their reputation commonly preceding them within knowledgeable online and offline 3D Printing communities.

eSUN’s popularity in the industry has also helped to produce sustainable partnerships with many internationally famous 3D Printer manufacturers and distributors, with DIYElectronics having sole distributorship rights to provide their 3D Printing Filaments to South Africa and neighbouring African countries.
